Quote by Charles Spurgeon
“But it is because he can sing at night, sing in times of trouble, sing when he is almost driven to despair, that he can then prove his sincerity. His life has its glory in the night. The stars are not visible by daylight, but they become visible when the sun is set. There are many Christians whose lives may not burn brightly in times of prosperity, but they will be seen in adversity.”

He was converted to Christ at the age of 16 and immediately began preaching. He preached in the streets and in the fields before he was 21. In his first church, he began with 100 members. It grew until he was preaching to 10,000 people in the Surrey Music Hall. His church, the Metropolitan Tabernacle, seated 6,000 people. He withdrew from every movement among English Baptists which tended to criticize the Authorized Version 1611 in any way.
Before his death, he published more than 2,000 sermons and 49 volumes of commentaries, sayings, anecdotes, illustrations, and devotions.
